The Enemy Lyrics - Singles - Dirty Pretty Things

So far dishonest as the day is long 

I'm sorry so I'll go now 

But I love you, so it won't be long 

And the specters in the masonry 

Remind us of the things that might have been 

Isn't it time you washed your face? 

It looks like a burnt out fireplace 

And I am awash with memories 

And worrying complexities 

But in time 

(In time) 

You'll find it very scary 

It's hard to live respectfully 

The enemy as I know it 

Is right inside my head 

The enemy as I know it 

Is right inside my head 

Everyone's still all over the place 

And not to humble to embrace 

And oh my gosh the memories 

But your arrogance perplexes me 

Now this time 

(This time) 

I shouldn't be so lazy 

Just try to live respectfully 

The enemy as I know it 

Is right inside my head 

The enemy as I know it 

Is right inside my head 

So are you giving it a shot now? 

And it all came back 

And you did a little turn now 

Well, they didn't like that 

Are you going to give it up for? 

(And the specters in the masonry 

Remind us of the things that might have been) 

All you need's a gentle heart 

To see you through endless dark 

All you need's a gentle heart 

To see you through endless dark 

The enemy as I know it 

Is right inside my head 

The enemy as I know it 

Is right inside my head 

The enemy as I know it 

Is right inside my head 

The enemy as I know it 

Is right inside my head
